Humanity
At Amna, building and maintaining communities of care is the appropriate solution to the scale of the refugee crisis. We build connection and community in all aspect of our work – whether it’s the co-creations of our programmes or how we are scaling this work to reach as many refugees in need as possible.
Inclusiveness
Our approach is to work within community structures and organisations to integrate trauma-sensitive psychosocial approaches and tools so that refugees can gain respite, share experiences, be listened to and understood in safe, consistent spaces. In doing so, we ensure that a regular, dependable programme of psychosocial support remains available for those who need it, long after the cameras have turned away.
Sustainability
We are working to raise the global standard in mental health care for refugees and promote sector-leading practices in humanitarian self-care. That’s why sustainability is a key part of what we do. We continually assess our work to ensure our programmes are effective and develop our methods into models that can be taught and replicated in different settings around the world.
